My avid followers may have noticed the MIA Friday afternoon blog post. Well let’s just say it was a whirlwind wedding weekend!
Imagine it’s Friday afternoon at 5:30 pm.
Here in Houston, A Fare Extraordinaire is a buzz confirming and re-confirming the details of Saturday night’s 550+ person wedding at the Museum of Fine Arts. With passed hors d’ oeuvres and FOUR buffet presentations, ranging from a “Bridal Buffet” filled with delicious light and refreshing vegetarian items and a dessert-only buffet with SIX rich options, the wedding was on its way to becoming a true affair extraordiniare. And the guest count was still growing!
Miles away on the northeast coast of Newport, Rhode Island, I begin to slowly walk down the aisle as Maid of Honor in my big sister’s wedding.
Although I was originally peeved that AFE would not be producing the magical evening, this notion quickly subsided when I got my first taste of Newport scenery…

No complaints, but at the end of the day (and the wedding weekend) I was proud when I noticed not one Newport chef had whipped me up a batch of lobster mashed potatoes. There are still some items that remain an AFE specialty!
Congratulations to my sister Holly and my new brother Clayton!
